Delhi Government Plans PG Inspections and Regulatory Measures for Student Housing
The Delhi government plans to inspect 100 paying guest (PG) accommodations over three days to ensure safety compliance. Proposed regulations include mandatory CCTV cameras with 40-45 days of recording at entry, exit, and common areas, excluding private spaces. A centralized online portal will collect student accommodation data to improve monitoring. A sub-committee has been formed to review legal restrictions on PG operations near educational hubs, aiming to finalize a regulatory framework after Dussehra.
